W*rk definitely is an impediment to your health!
No arguments there !! DW thinks my elevated bp is purely down to work - combination of stress and not having time to exercise properly.
In years gone by I have been hospitalized twice on return from overseas trips - 1st time with meningitis - 2nd time with some suspected infectious disease that they never could nail down.
While in The Woodlands they insisted I work on a project in India even though I said I didn't want to work there (the chemical plant in question was to be a new acquisition and is located in a province bordering Pakistan). I did make one trip there to set up the project and then handed over to a team in APAC, but a few months later they insisted I take over the project lead again, at which point I started looking around for something else.
We loved living in The Woodlands but the job was definitely too much at that time - I could just imagine myself getting something like Malaria (which my boss has from his stint in China) right before I RE.
